The VG algebra tope-graph reconstruction conjecture

Assume char⁡R≠2\operatorname{char} R\neq 2. Let A1\mathcal{A}_1 and A2\mathcal{A}_2 be real arrangements. Their filtered VG algebras are VG⁡(Ai)\operatorname{\mathcal{VG}}(\mathcal{A}_i), and their graded VG algebras are VG⁡∙(Ai)\operatorname{\mathsf{VG}}^\bullet(\mathcal{A}_i). The VG algebra tope-graph reconstruction conjecture. If

VG⁡(A1)≅VG⁡(A2)\operatorname{\mathcal{VG}}(\mathcal{A}_1)\cong\operatorname{\mathcal{VG}}(\mathcal{A}_2)

as filtered algebras, or if

VG⁡∙(A1)≅VG⁡∙(A2)\operatorname{\mathsf{VG}}^\bullet(\mathcal{A}_1)\cong\operatorname{\mathsf{VG}}^\bullet(\mathcal{A}_2)

as graded algebras, then the tope graphs T⁡(A1)\operatorname{\mathcal{T}}(\mathcal{A}_1) and T⁡(A2)\operatorname{\mathcal{T}}(\mathcal{A}_2) are isomorphic. The conjecture would extend the result known in the supplied text for arrangements generic in codimension 22 to general arrangements; the supplied text gives no resolution.
